There are currently several seismic swarms ongoing around the world.

Nobody knows when they are going to stop and more frightening what they are going to produce.

The current earthquake swarm began on June 12. A week later, the USGS put out a statement to say that 464 earthquakes had been recorded, with the largest being magnitude 4.4. This is the highest number of earthquakes at Yellowstone within a single week in the past five years.

At the time, a spokesperson for the USGS said “slowly winding down,” adding that “no other geological activity has been detected.” However, in a newly released statement about the ongoing swarm, seismologists from the University of Utah said 878 events have now been recorded at Yellowstone National Park.

Oficials say there are no sings of an eruption and that the series seems to be linked to the movement of the American and the Eurasian tectonic plates.
